This discusses the informal economy & the black market in Quiapo and how it affects the film public sphere along with key parties involved: politicians & businessmen. It also highlights the importance of pirated films in shaping and exposing Filipinos from the lower classes to art but consequentially killing the film industry business as well.

The “Study on economic assessment for improving eAccessibility services and products” general objective is twofold: to produce specific micro-level evidence and practical tools that support decision makers of firms and public sector organisations in their assessment of their investments in eAccessibility, and to generate aggregate figures and recommendations that provide policy makers with a view on the order of magnitude of potential benefits and costs for the economy and society as a whole, as well as the mechanisms to boost them.
This study aims to contribute to the improvement of the accessibility of mainstream ICT by providing useful information on costs and benefits of eAccessibility to the different stakeholders, including empirical evidence, analytically/theoretically elaborated instruments and data, and recommendations for improvement.
This Case Study Skills Workshop is designed to help students develop the essential examination techniques to tackle and ace the A-level Economics case study paper.

Introduction to Indian Financial System ()Avanish Goel
The financial system of a country is an important tool for economic development of the country, as it helps in creation of wealth by linking savings with investments.
It facilitates the flow of funds form the households (savers) to business firms (investors) to aid in wealth creation and development of both the parties
Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

What website can I sell pi coins securely.DOT TECH
Currently there are no website or exchange that allow buying or selling of pi coins..
But you can still easily sell pi coins, by reselling it to exchanges/crypto whales interested in holding thousands of pi coins before the mainnet launch.
Who is a pi merchant?
A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins from miners and resell to these crypto whales and holders of pi..
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale. The only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners and pi merchants stands in between the miners and the exchanges.
How can I sell my pi coins?
Selling pi coins is really easy, but first you need to migrate to mainnet wallet before you can do that. I will leave the telegram contact of my personal pi merchant to trade with.
Tele-gram.
@Pi_vendor_247
Even tho Pi network is not listed on any exchange yet.
Buying/Selling or investing in pi network coins is highly possible through the help of vendors. You can buy from vendors[ buy directly from the pi network miners and resell it]. I will leave the telegram contact of my personal vendor.

"Pag nagpunta ka ng mga, halimbawa Video City, Astrovision,
PowerBooks mga ganun, napakalimited ng choices mo dun, usually mga
mainstream Hollywood movies, compared sa Quiapo, napaka-diverse
kasi ng selection nila nung films, kasama kasi dun yung mga luma ng
films na usually hindi mo na makikita sa mga video stores. So, in a way
napaka-helpful ng Quiapo dahil it offers a lot of diversity in terms sa film
selection natin at a cheaper price of course."
– Brian Gonzales, FEU Film Society Alumnus

" Kasi dito po sa Quiapo, wala
kang ibang ilalagay dito na
mabebenta mo. DVD lang po.
Kaya DVD lang ang naisip naming
itinda dito sa Quiapo.“

namin. Kahit bawal pinili naman
'to. Kasi mabenta 'yan e, eto ang
mabenta [sa Quiapo].“
– Takuleng, pirated film seller
17. MANILA CITY HALL
“if they continue to patronize this, malulugi ang mga producers ng
mga films natin. So it affects the modernization of the making of the
local films. Pati artista mawawalan ng trabaho. Kasi kung laging lugi
ang kanilang pelikula, sinong producer ang gagawa ng kanilang
pelikula?”
– Alfredo Lim, Mayor of Manila
18. OMB
“Hindi ka plastik, you dont do that just because it made you or our
office popular. Naka-score kami ng maganda. Sa mga sellers kasi

Kwento ka ng kwento, paliwanag ka ng paliwag. Pero pag ma-tiyaga
ka, at nakita nilang sincere ka, pati sila tinatamaan. It takes a while, but

- Ronnie Ricketts, OMB Chairman

piracy, pero sa tingin ko, di pa ito
offcially close sa buong mundo. kaya
malaki ang possibility na babalik at
babalik pa din to”.
- Jet Leyco, Director of Ex Press
20. FILM PRODUCER
“Kasi yang pagsara ng pirated films, expected na yan, but they
should have a more positive approach. Dapat nagkakaroon ng
advertising campaign or pr campaign, saying na we have good films
na gawa ng artists, na we should patronize them by watching these
films but not for free. No to free screenings”
- Raymond Lee, Executive Producer of Zombadings
